Jason and Heather – Temecula Wine Country

We have a mini-napa here in So-Cal.  It’s right outside the city limits of Temecula and it is just a hop, skip, and a jump away.  Heather and Jason contracted us about their wedding just a few short weeks ago, and I can’t believe it has come and gone so quickly.  Heather and Jason had a beautiful ceremony and reception at the Wiens Family Cellars.

***Note to brides: Heather did one thing especially well to help her photography go smoothly: deciding ahead of time who she needed family portraits of and tying up a list for me (with first names). This way, I was able to check off as I got them.  This list made it possible for us to squeeze in many more than I usually am able to when deciding on the fly.  It took out the awkward decision making you have to do as to whether Uncle Brandon needs to be in the next shot or not.  🙂

This is also a sneak peek at our new logo – which will be on EVERYTHING we show in the near future.  The blog “stamp” seems like a good place to do a trial run, so please forgive the disconnect between the logo above and the logo in this post.

The dress was stunning – the wind made this shot tricky!

These barrel rooms are so cool.

Crystal and Steven’s Engagement Session – Orange County Wedding Photographer

We clicked the first time we met.  I think we spent 2 hours just chatting at the first appointment, and the same amount of time with them over Pho after this photo shoot.  I know this is going to be a really fun wedding.  This couple reminds me of all the reasons I got into this business in the first place.

We decided to shoot at all-new locations and try out some new techniques.  Let us know what you think!

This is behind a random elementary school in Orange.  We went location scouting after church and I’m glad we did!

Santiago and Tirtzah – Santa Ana Wedding Photography

Santiago and Tirtzah have that sort of magic that everyone dreams of at their wedding. These two obviously are crazy about each other as evidenced by their engagement photo session we did a few months ago.  Their ceremony was at Waverly Chapel in Santa Ana, and the Reception was at Jason’s Downtown, also in Santa Ana.  The details turned out amazingly, and I really had a great time.

Check out their slideshow below, and the full gallery of all photos on my photo by clicking here.


Here are a few of my favorites…
